Judging A Book (Beer) By It’s Cover

OC Weekly just put out it’s Top 10 best beer labels from around the world. There are some surprises on the list. I’m not surprised by Left Hand Brewing making it, nor The Bruery. It was nice to see Red Brick make the cut. The Grimm Brothers beers are quite sexy too. Got a favorite that didn’t make this list? Check out the 10 Ten at OC. [OCWeekly, via @oboudreaux ]
